Dimitrij / Dimitrij BBC Proms Royal Albert Hall
1. THE LONDON SUNDAY TIMES 25/07/04 - Hugh Canning
... My most purely enjoyable night at the Proms opening weekend was with Dvorak's opera Dimitrij...And it was pretty fabulously sung by Stuart Skelton (Dimitrij), a youthful heroic tenor of golden potential...
2. THE GUARDIAN 20/07/04 - Tim Ashley
...The almost unsingable role was taken by Stuart Skelton, negotiating the implacable tessitura with almost indecent ease.
3. THE LONDON TIMES 20/07/04 - Hilary Finch
...All the casting stops were pulled out for this Proms premiere. As Dimitrij, the fast-rising Australian tenor, Stuart Skelton, revealed a lyrical suppleness which both sweetened & strengthened his heroic tenor in the meditations & dialogues which are the glory of this opera.
